Abstract
Implicit/explicit motive-congruence predicts many positive outcomes. We aimed to investigate whether motive-congruence is associated with mindfulness, the non-judgmental awareness of the present moment. In a cross sectional study (N=190), we found that people with higher dispositional mindfulness had higher power motive-congruence. Thus, mindfulness might be a means to increase motive-congruence.
